弟兄姊妹们主内平安，今天我们分享的经文来自旧约诗篇（Psalms 65:9-13）
You care for the land and water it; you enrich it abundantly. The streams of God are filled with water to provide the people with grain, for so you have ordained it. You drench its  furrows and level its ridges; you soften it with showers and bless its crops. You crown the year with your bounty, and your carts overflow with abundance.The grasslands of the desert overflow; the hills are clothed with gladness.The meadows are covered with flocks and the valleys are mantled with grain; they shout for joy and sing.
你眷顾地，降下透雨，使地大得肥美。神的河满了水；你这样浇灌了地，好为人预备五谷。你浇透地的犁沟，润平犁脊，降甘霖使地软和；其中发长的，蒙你赐福。你以恩典为年岁的冠冕，你的路径都滴下脂油，滴在旷野的草场上。小山以欢乐束腰，草场以羊群为衣，谷中也长满了五谷。这一切都欢呼歌唱。

最后我们再回顾一下这段经文
You care for the land and water it; you enrich it abundantly.The streams of God are filled with water to provide the people with grain, for so you have ordained it. You drench its furrows and level its ridges; you soften it with showers and bless its crops. You crown the year with your bounty, and your carts overflow with abundance. The grasslands of the desert overflow; the hills are clothed with gladness.The meadows are covered with flocks and the valleys are mantled with grain; they shout for joy and sing.
第九至十节“你眷顾地，降下透雨，使地大得肥美；神的河满了水；你这样浇灌了地，好为人预备五谷。你浇透地的犁沟，润平犁脊；降甘霖，使地软和；其中发长的，蒙你赐福。”自然界各样的恩惠都是神所赐的。洪水之后神应许：“地还存留的时候，稼穑、寒暑、冬夏、昼夜，就永不停息了”（创世纪8:22）。请注意这两节圣经中论水的字是何等的多，如“透雨”、“河”、“浇灌”、“透”、“润”、“甘霖”等。神若不从上面降雨，人有何办法呢？就是俗语也说：‘福从天降’或说‘福自天申’。神的恩惠也是他给人的证据：“从天降雨，赏赐丰年，叫你们饮食饱足，满心喜乐”（使徒行传14:17）。为那心中干渴的人，神更预备了圣灵的浇灌，好滋润人的心灵。这就是神满了水的河。“有一道河，这河的分叉使神的城欢喜。”（诗篇46:4）主耶稣自己也说过。“人若渴了，可以到我这里来喝。信我的人就如经上所说，从他腹中要流出活水的江河来”（约翰7:37-38）。到了新耶路撒冷，另有一条“生命水的河。明亮如水晶，从神羔羊的宝座流出来”（启示录22:1）。到那时再没有任何人干渴了，再没有“干旱疲乏之地了”，并且河的两边有生命树。
第十一至十三节“你以恩典为年岁的冠冕；你的路径都滴下脂油；滴在旷野的草场上；小山以欢乐束腰；草场以羊群为衣；谷中也长满了五谷；这一切都欢呼歌唱。”神的恩惠是从起头到末了。他是创始成终的神。“从岁首到年终，耶和华你神的眼目时常看顾那地”（申命记11:12）。神不但“以恩典为年岁的冠冕”，他也必以恩典为信徒一生的冠冕。神的恩惠和慈爱必随着那些爱他的人，一直到见主面的时候。本来是旷野之地，不毛之地，现在到处都长满了青草。本来是山谷之地，是不能种东西的，是日光照不到的，现在因着透雨，因着深耕，在山谷中都满了五谷。草场上不仅有羊，且是羊群把草场都盖满了，像穿上衣服一样 ─ “草场以羊群为衣。”这个景况多么令人欣喜欢呼，我们无不惊讶与感恩神的赐福。从神的百姓到世人，再普及万物，谈论的范围更加扩大，连天地、雨水、江河、路径、旷野、草场、小山、幽谷、羊群、五谷，许多动物、植物，和许多大自然界的东西，都一同歌颂神的慈爱。
